Thought I would start a chat about this class, as the boy is currently in this group. Just a spot to swap stories and backgrounds of the men, families and adventures of this class. Please no names and try to stay away from discussing time lines of Phases or course completions, or detailed descriptions of training evolutions as trying to keep OPSEC in mind.

My guy dropped this morning. Knee gave out. He's in good spirits knowing that he didn't quit b/c he gave up. Now onto recovery and his new journey.
I know how you feel, tough when this happens...when my son made that decsion, just wished I could have been there for him. Tell him to hang in there and he is a better man for doing what he has done, experinced a huge life lesson and faced it with courage. I think he will find, as my son has, that if he keeps his bearing and commitment to excellence that he has learned from his BUDs Experince the rest of his naval career will be a cake walk and he will excel in every aspect.
